install ///uninstall garmin express

Hi

I wish to install garmin express but cannot...i have tried the following to no avail


"If the Garmin Express installer is unable to successfully install Garmin Express to the PC, a "Failed. Try Again?" error message is displayed. If this occurs:

Click the "Failed. Try Again?" button to retry the installation. The installation will often be successful the second time.
Verify that the computer meets the system requirements for Express. These requirements are posted at www.garmin.com/express.
Ensure the user profile has administrative rights. Installing Garmin Express as a standard user or guest account is not recommended.1
Computers owned by businesses often have restrictions set up to prevent the installation of unauthorized programs. If using a business computer, contact the IT department responsible for the computer or try installing Garmin Express on a personal computer.
Restart the computer and try again.
Garmin Express should not be prevented from installing by most consumer antivirus programs. However, if the antivirus being used has out-of-date definitions or is more aggressive than standard consumer antivirus, disabling the antivirus program may allow Garmin Express to install.
After these indications are followed, Garmin Express should be able to successfully install. If the issue persists, contact Garmin Product Support.

1To determine whether the user profile has administrative rights:

Press the Windows key on the keyboard
Type User Accounts
Click User Accounts
The user account name and type is displayed on the right hand side of the window"

    I would suggest you clear out your temp and package cache folders:
    C:\ProgramData\Package Cache
    C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp

    Once that is done please try again. If you continue to have problems contact support.

    updating garmin express..

    A while ago I had installed Garmin Express from a site and didn't realize it really wasn't from Garmin.. Well that created a whole new ballgame.
    Sometimes the update doesn't work and you keep trying.. I had removed the old Express and started anew..
    Now with windows 10..!! The update to 4.1.6.0 didn't update with the new version... :mad: ..soooo.. I download the new version from Garmin..
    :cool: Ok that works..!! my lesson if ..it fails delete all the versions of old Express and start anew and always download from a safe site.. :)
